1st Place
Kindly donated by O'Reilly. "Serious photographers, including professionals, who want to take advantage of the unique creative powers available through digital photography and digital image processing, including Photoshop CS, will find this problem-solving book invaluable. Rather than a general discussion of photography principles, Digital Photography: Expert Techniques focuses on workflow: time-tested, step-by-step procedures based on hard-nosed experience by and for genuine practitioners of the art." |
2nd Place

Photobird.com provides storage space for your photos along with an intuitive, attractive, professionally-designed web-based interface that makes it easy to upload, manage, view, and share your photos.
